The juvenile, who's now 21, fears for his life once he is freed and had requested the transfer.

New Delhi: The juvenile convict in the December 16, 2012 gangrape and murder of a paramedical student in Delhi has been shifted out of correctional facility a few days back due to security reasons.

Though technically his release will take place on Sunday (December 20, 2015) but for all practical purpose, he has been moved out of correctional home. The Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) has been guarded as to where he has been moved.

The juvenile, who's now 21, fears for his life once he is freed and had requested the transfer. A committee of JJB will work out his "rehabilitation". A meeting to this effect was held on Friday at the JJB.

The Delhi High Court on Friday refused to give any direction on granting a a stay on his release. He will be under the physical control of a management committee for the next two years. His movements will be monitored by the committee and after two years it will take a call on if he is be fit to be released in the society without any observation.

The girl's parents say they have been denied justice, but will abide by the court's decision.

While delivering the verdict, the High Court also asked the Juvenile Justice Board to talk to the minor convict's family. Even though the other four convicts have been given death sentence because they were adult when the crime was committed, the minor was sent to three years in a remand home after his conviction in the Juvenile Justice Act.
